Ivan Yarrow didn’t pay much attention, waved his hand, "Get back to work, the president has moved up his return schedule."

"Secretary Yarrow, why is the president in such a rush to return?"

"Director Wallace, do your job and don’t try to guess the president’s intentions."

Soon, the door opened, Seth Sullivan stood in the doorway.

Serena Sterling walked in, Seth Sullivan closed the door of the presidential suite.

"Seth Sullivan, where is Aunt Jacqueline? How do I know you aren’t lying to , make a call, I want to hear Aunt Jacqueline’s voice." Serena Sterling got straight to the point.

Seth Sullivan nodded, took out his phone, dialed a number.

Soon, it connected, Seth Sullivan handed the phone to Serena Sterling, who held it to her ear, Aunt Jacqueline’s familiar voice quickly transmitted, "Hello... hello, is it Young Master Sullivan? Why aren’t you speaking... when will you let see Little Miss..."

Aunt Jacqueline always referred to Serena Sterling’s mommy as Miss, Serena Sterling is Little Miss. Ten years have passed, Serena Sterling has grown up, but Aunt Jacqueline still calls her Little Miss.

Serena Sterling’s eyes imdiately reddened, everyone changed, but Aunt Jacqueline who loved her hasn’t changed at all, "Hi, Aunt Jacqueline, it’s , it’s ."

"Little Miss, is it really you? Cough, cough, cough..." On the other end, Aunt Jacqueline began to cough violently.

Serena Sterling imdiately knew the body of Aunt Jacqueline had beco very weak over the years; it seed she couldn’t take it much longer.

She grabbed the phone nervously, "Aunt Jacqueline, Aunt..."

Seth Sullivan directly snatched the phone away, hung up the call, "Confird, I wasn’t lying to you."

With that, Seth Sullivan stepped closer to Serena Sterling.

Serena Sterling took a step back, "Stop there, our deal is for you to give Aunt Jacqueline to , then I’ll spend the night with you."

Seth Sullivan frowned, his expression darkened, "Serena Sterling, haven’t you figured out the situation, you are the one pleading to give Aunt Jacqueline to you!"

"Seth Sullivan, the person who hasn’t figured out the situation is you, you’re the one pleading for to spend the night with you!"

"Serena Sterling, where does your confidence co from?"

Serena Sterling sneered, "Last night you slept with Vanessa, but in the middle of the night, you called , wanting to co tonight. That unsatisfied look on your face is my greatest confidence."

Seth Sullivan quickly pressed his thin lips into a cold arc.

Serena Sterling grabbed her bag and left, "That’s all for today, once you bring Aunt Jacqueline over, we’ll make the deal."

"Serena Sterling, don’t push !" Seth Sullivan tried to grab her.

But Serena Sterling was already prepared, she forcefully threw her bag at Seth Sullivan’s handso face, "Seth Sullivan, who exactly is pushing whom, ten years ago you testified against , causing to beco the target of public criticism, and now ten years later you are using Aunt Jacqueline to push to spend the night with you. Can you justify doing this to my mom’s love, to my calling you Brother Seth?"

Seth Sullivan suddenly froze in place.

Serena Sterling with red eyes stared at him like an angry little beast.

After a long ti, Seth Sullivan stepped forward, placed his hands on Serena Sterling’s shoulders, "After all, you are still unwilling to spend the night with , I don’t understand why, why can other n, but not ?"

Looking at his obsessive looks, Serena Sterling didn’t refute, she just quietly asked, "When did you know I was with another man?"

Seth Sullivan wasn’t willing to discuss this topic, he held Serena Sterling’s shoulder with strength, tendons bulging, "Ha, did you really think your dirty deeds would remain unknown, that winter I went to the countryside to find you, you stayed out all night, I searched all night, nearly went berserk searching, until Vanessa told you spent the night in a cave with a wild man, when I rushed over, I saw you lying together!"

Serena Sterling finally understood why. That winter, she saved a man from icy conditions.

The man was unconscious, roads were sealed by snow, couldn’t return ho, she sheltered him in a cave for a night.

So, that’s it, Vanessa said she spent a night entangled with that man, and he believed it.

"Ha, hahaha..." Serena Sterling suddenly laughed, she almost laughed herself into tears.

"Why are you laughing?" Seth Sullivan asked.

Serena Sterling forcefully pushed him away, then picked up her bag from the carpet, "Nothing, as I said, give Aunt Jacqueline, then I’ll make a deal with you, think about it."

Serena Sterling left.
